Leas,
haha fair play, well I'm 34 so not one of the old men. Brexit dominates LLOY's share price for the simple reason that it's a UK bank. The outcome of Brexit, good or bad will determine its medium term direction.
In terms of fundamentals...
Discount to future cash flow is currently 99p which puts it as a significant discount.
P/E is only 10.1 which means it's also very good value compared to other UK banks.
It's PEG (price/earnings to growth ratio) is only 1.2 which means it's seen as a low growth stock next year.
It pays a medium level dividend...
Don't expect excitement with this stock, but it will probably give a 40% return within 5 years, assuming the trade war coupled with crazy levels of global debt doesn't cause The Great Depression Mark 2.
If that happens, it's not your shares you'll be worried about... See you in the Trenches :-P
